Until within q dozen years or 50
ago no ochres have been found in the
United States that could successfully
compete with the French ochres in re-
spect of color and other essential char
acteristics. Common ochres, however,
have been mined abundantly In Yer
mont, Pennsylvania. and elsewhere,
and extensively employed by oil-cloth
manufacturers for a flleri in the body of
cloth, where the color or tint is not
material. But in 1872 deposit Of
ochre equal in quality to the French
product was discovered on the Appo.
mattox river, at, Bermuda, Va, and
from this source are taken about q
thousand tons annually, or one-third
the quantity OF fine ochres used yearly
in the United States. The Virginia
deposit contains about 10 per cent. Of
sand or grit, which mustb be washed out
before the ochre car be ground and
bolted, but the French ochres are 80
pure as not to require washing.

THE animal kingdom needs scaven-
gers to clean up the waste, to eat the
dead ~carcasses and consume the refuse
that accumulates. Even f1ies have a
great field of usefulness in eating up
garbage and destroying smells that
otherwise would be intolerable and de-
trimental to health. On the farm
scavengers of another kind can be
utilized in removing that pest and
vigorous enemy of the faTmer-weeds.
And none are better for this work than
sheep. They will keep weeds eaten off
and down. They will also keep brush
down that has been cut OF, and will
eat many corners that otherwise would
be sowing seeds on the adjacent land.

There is no doubt that a well-kept
dock of poultry is the most profitable
of all farm stock. But a little flock
well kept, like a little farm we'll titled
brings the most profit to the farmer.
Just as many as can be kept without
crowding. and with ease and conyen-
ience,l will be the most profitable.
Poultry will not bear crowding any
more than sheep or pigs or people, and
1t Is well known that when any Of
these are too closely kept disease ap-
pears and works mischief. 1t is a
necessity of the case. because cleanli-
ness must be sacrificed to necessity.

The absolute necessity of an increased

Bishop Moore some months ago TO decide to

for It's enlargement to conform as nearly as
possible to its original Moorish design were
made month ago by the famous architect

THE NORTH CAROLINA COAST.
Cause of it's Elevation-The Entire
Country Once Old Oceans Bed.

Cause of its Elevation-The Entire
Country Once Old Oceans Bed.
An elevation of the coast of North Caro-
lima to the height of eight inches is supposed
to have been effected by the late earth
quakeS. Examinations made by me induce
the opinion that the ocean once covered the
whole of Carolina from the Santee to the
Savannah river, and that the bluff on which
Savannah stands, the sand hills Of Augusta
and the high hills of Santee are the dunes
OF that great bay. Then a subsistence of
the ocean bed, which in remote times sunk
the island of Atlantis producing the Noahic
deluge, produced a parallel corrugation
along the shore and made an inland sea like
Pamlico and Albemarle sounds to the north.
Other movements up and down gathered
marine and land animals, their remains and
the roostS of sea birds into the phosphate
guano beds, now being exploited, and finally
left the surface of the land as it now is.
This theory | think tenable, because in
examining canal of four miles cut through
the lowlands between the Edisto and the
Ashepoo, known as Bear Island, to irrigate
the rice fields show an alteration of level
more than once, and lasting long enough to
produce peat deposit, then a forest of large
cypress, followed by one of pine This seems
to have persisted by an influx of salt or
braclxish water depositing the present soil of
the rice fields, interspersed with "hummock''
of more sandy soil.
The height of ''Shell Bluff" below Au-
gusta, would seem to indicate a long CON
tinued subsistence at that point, followed by
gradual equal elevation, while the alleged
discovery in it Of an elks skull with a flint
arrow or lance head sticking in it, supports
the idea that pre-Adamite man existed in
Georgia as well as elsewhere, if anywhere.

Some Singular Suicides.

From the Winston (N c.. Sentinel
An incident occurred in Salem yesterday
which likely will not be repeated in half dozen
centuries. An English sparrow was building a
nest in the porch of Mr.. A. E. Eberts residence,
and carried a string to the nest and had it par
TALLY woven in when it attempted to fly, and by
some means the other end of the string became
entanged around it's head and held it fast teth-
cred by the neck. The helpless little creature
became frightened and fiuttered and struggled
in vain to free itself. The miniature moose only
closed tighter about its throat till finally it
dropped dead-hung by the neck as neatly as a
human hand could have done it.
The incident, which probably has not a dupl-
cate i'll history. recalls one of the somewhat
similar character with regard to a horse. He
was grazing, and had on a halter with short
rein dangling from his head. The horses tail
short and stubby, and in throwing his head
around to scare off a fly the bridal rein got
htched over the tail. The horse finding his
head fastened, became excited, gave sudden
and violent jerk of his head, which broke his
neck and resulted in instant death.
